About
FJORD 490 OPEN
2027 | New Yacht | Build to Order
The FJORD 490 OPEN is a sophisticated 49-foot walkaround motor yacht created for owners who want maximum freedom on deck, impressive performance and an exceptional connection between people and the sea.
Combining Nordic-inspired design, Italian styling by Marco Casali and German engineering, the 490 Open places social interaction at the centre of its concept. Her expansive walkaround deck, large T-Top, enormous sunpads, opening side terraces and highly configurable interior create an unusually versatile platform for Mediterranean cruising.
The current FJORD range identifies the 490 Open as a new model, with a 14.60 m overall length and 4.58 m beam.
DESIGN & CHARACTER
The FJORD 490 OPEN has been designed to make the entire yacht feel like one continuous outdoor living space.
Its wide walkaround deck allows guests to move freely from the cockpit to the bow without negotiating narrow passages or awkward steps.
The design combines:
The result is a yacht with a distinctly open character while still providing substantial accommodation below deck.
THE WALKAROUND DECK
The walkaround concept is one of the defining features of the FJORD 490 OPEN.
The generous side decks create easy circulation between the bow, cockpit and bathing platform.
This makes the yacht particularly well suited to entertaining, allowing guests to move around the boat without disrupting the main social areas.
THE NEW LARGE T-TOP
The 490 Open features a substantial T-Top, providing effective protection from both sun and changing weather conditions.
The structure has been integrated into the yacht's sleek profile while creating a generous shaded area around the helm and central cockpit.
This allows owners to enjoy the yacht comfortably during the hottest Mediterranean days without losing the open-air character of the design.
BOW SUNPAD
The bow features one of the yacht's most impressive leisure areas.
The large forward sunpad provides extensive space for relaxation and can be specified with a chaiselongue configuration.
This creates a particularly attractive private area while underway or at anchor.
FJORD describes the bow sunpad as the largest in its class, with the chaiselongue option providing additional flexibility.
AFT SUNPAD & ENTERTAINING
The aft deck features a substantial sunpad measuring more than 5 m², with an adjustable forward section.
The arrangement can be transformed into a forward-facing bench, creating additional seating for casual dining or socialising.
OPENING SIDE TERRACES
The FJORD 490 OPEN can be specified with electrohydraulic side terraces on port and starboard.
When deployed, these balconies dramatically increase the usable beam at water level.
They create additional waterfront platforms for:
When retracted, they integrate neatly into the yacht's hull profile.
This is one of the features that gives the 490 Open such a strong connection with the surrounding water.
HYDRAULIC BATHING PLATFORM
An alternative configuration incorporates a hydraulic bathing platform with integrated ladder.
The platform provides convenient access to the water and can be used as a substantial beach-club style terrace.
The large aft storage areas also provide practical space for water-sports equipment and other cruising gear.
The yacht has been designed to accommodate an active Mediterranean lifestyle, with equipment and storage integrated into the deck architecture.
HELM & DRIVING POSITION
The helm has been designed to provide an engaging driving experience without sacrificing comfort.
FJORD places particular emphasis on the comfort of the driving position, with a highly ergonomic helm arrangement and excellent visibility.
Modern integrated navigation technology can be specified according to the owner's requirements.
The Volvo Penta IPS propulsion system provides precise manoeuvring and joystick control, making the 490 Open particularly practical in marinas and confined harbours.
PROPULSION
The FJORD 490 OPEN is offered with twin Volvo Penta IPS propulsion.
STANDARD — 2x VOLVO PENTA IPS 700PERFORMANCE OPTION — 2x VOLVO PENTA IPS 800
The IPS 800 upgrade provides additional power and performance, hitting a speed of up to approximately 34 knots.
INTERIOR
Although the 490 Open is fundamentally an outdoor-oriented yacht, the lower deck provides a sophisticated and surprisingly spacious interior.
The interior can be customised through several different design atmospheres, allowing the owner to create anything from a restrained contemporary environment to a more luxurious and expressive interior.
OWNER'S CABIN
The full-beam midships owner's cabin is positioned in the widest part of the yacht.
This arrangement provides excellent floor space, generous headroom and a comfortable private environment.
Large hull glazing allows substantial natural light into the cabin and reinforces the yacht's connection with the sea.
The midships position also provides a comfortable and stable environment when cruising.
VIP / SECOND CABIN
The 490 Open can be configured with two double cabins as standard.
This makes the yacht suitable not only for day cruising but also for extended weekends and longer stays aboard with family or friends.
FLEXIBLE LOWER-DECK CONFIGURATION
One of the most attractive features of the 490 Open is its configuration flexibility.
The owner can choose between different lower-deck arrangements, including replacing one of the cabins with a U-shaped seating area.
This allows the yacht to be tailored according to its intended use:
Two-cabin configurationIdeal for extended cruising and overnight accommodation.
Cabin + lounge configurationIdeal for owners who prioritise entertaining and social space.
GALLEY & INTERIOR LIVING
The lower deck can incorporate a fully functional galley, making the 490 Open suitable for longer periods aboard.
The yacht can therefore operate equally well as:
The interior arrangement can be tailored around the owner's priorities.
HEADS & SHOWER
Depending on the selected layout, the 490 Open can incorporate up to two private heads with separate showers.
NATURAL LIGHT BELOW DECK
The extensive hull glazing is a major feature of the interior.
STORAGE & WATER TOYS
Extensive storage beneath the aft sunpads provides dedicated space for water-sports equipment and cruising accessories.
The arrangement is suitable for carrying equipment such as:
This allows owners to keep the main deck uncluttered while still carrying the equipment required for a full day on the water.
CUSTOMISATION
Personalisation is a major part of the FJORD 490 concept.
The yacht can be configured around the owner's preferred cruising style, from the exterior deck arrangement to the interior design.
FJORD currently offers several design atmospheres:
Interior finishes, upholstery and colour schemes can then be tailored further.
OWNER CONFIGURATION
Potential specification areas include:
The FJORD 490 OPEN is designed around one fundamental idea: more freedom to enjoy the entire yacht.
Her wide walkaround deck, expansive bow sunpad, reversible aft living arrangements, optional electrohydraulic terraces and hydraulic bathing platform create an unusually versatile outdoor environment.
Below deck, the full-beam owner's cabin, optional second cabin or lounge, generous hull glazing and highly configurable interior provide the comfort required for genuine cruising.
With Volvo Penta IPS 700 engines as standard and IPS 800 available as a performance upgrade, the 490 Open also gives the owner a meaningful choice between efficiency and additional performance.
For owners looking for a distinctive 49-foot open yacht with exceptional outdoor space, serious performance and extensive personalisation, the FJORD 490 OPEN is a compelling choice for Mediterranean cruising.
